In the first half of this article series, Part 1: Alexa, Buy Me... Anything!, we explored the numbers behind what will undoubtedly ultimately be one of the biggest trends not just in the way we interact with technology, but yes, in the way we shop for all of our "stuff."

Part 1: Alexa, Buy Me... Anything!
If I had told you even a decade or two ago that you could do some of the things with technology that we routinely do today when it comes to shopping, you would have laughed or thrown me out of the room. This would have been just as true whether I had been presenting a "2019 Tech Forecast" in 1999, or even in 2009, as a management consultant to the leadership of a company or whether it was sharing my predictions with a group of friends at a local watering hole!

Why AduroSmart ERIA Light Bulbs Are Must Have in Any Smart Home
Among photographers and interior designers, there's a saying. They all say, "Lighting is everything," and it's true. The right lighting can make an otherwise unwelcoming place look cozy, and the wrong lighting can make a mansion look like a wreck.

Experience VR with HyperVR Virtual Reality Headset
As someone who is not necessarily technologically-savvy, hearing terms like "virtual reality" and "augmented reality" made me feel like I was living in an episode of The Jetsons. Those terms, for all intents and purposes, sound so other-worldly to an older gentleman like myself, that I never imagined I would ever consider purchasing that kind of technology. After all, how much could something that literally puts you in another reality costs? Hundreds, if not thousands, right?!
